I went with the Fat Chizeled bars on my Heritage. Supposedly the same height as stock (12") but they sure look and feel taller. I wanted something more narrow than stock. I had to get wire extensions and new clutch cable and brake line as well. I'm 6'2" and these work good for me.
That is badass. It's a meaty looking front end. I would have bought that in a heartbeat, if I knew there was a setup that looked that good.
A baby Road Glide. SWEET! How does the faring setup perform?
It works pretty good. It takes all of the wind off my chest but my head is way above the windshield so my face gets full wind. They do have a taller windshield. No buffeting like the stock windshield though. I did however screw up when installing it. I didn't correctly account for the suspension travel and the lip on the bottom of the fairing put a big crease in my fender the first time I rode over some railroad tracks. I should have trimmed that lip on the bottom. So...I took the front fender off for now. I've ridden in the rain like this and surprisingly the fairing blocks the spray off the tire pretty well.

Did you do the install yourself? If so, did you have to de-pin the connectors to either pull them OUT of the stock bars or to pull them THROUGH the new Chizeled bars?
Thanks

bars look great, do you notice any difference in them? I saw a site and someone said they are dangerous, because narrow? What are your thoughts first hand?
